My attempt
to better inform.
1) Perhaps the biggest news first: we're moving. July 10/11 we'll be heading into a two bedroom in the same building. We decide on the unit tomorrow, and are already planning a purge-and-redesign for the new place. A little change to accompany married life (since we won't even have a chance to settle before we head west for the big day).
2) Immigration exam today; felt good.
3) This past weekend was fun; on Saturday we attended the RISD art sale, and a cookout at the home of one of Summer's friends (two doors down from Sen. Whitehouse, about a block from us).
4) At the cookout it was as if I heard Lily Allen in a new...light? Pardon the sensory confusion. Am currently loving Alright, Still.
5) Attended a talk by Ishmael Beah the other day; now I must read his book sometime. What a story. Strange to think we would have overlapped (3/4 years) at Oberlin had I (or SEA) gone.
6) Since we've not strayed too far from the subject of children in horrible situations, I have deemed it worth mentioning (though you are free to differ) that Pan's Labyrinth held up extremely well on second viewing a few weeks ago, and has been sticking with me since.
7) Constitutional Law and Criminal Procedure yet to go, then a different sort of busyness awaits.
8) I'm getting tired! Sleep.

Greensburg will partially rebuild, if only because it has the only "tourist destination" in the area. The "Big Well," being below ground, is OK, and they found the 1,000 lb meteorite. 25% of Gburg's population is over 65, so a lot probably won't rebuild--they'll move to the surrounding towns where their families are. It is pretty freaky--when it happened to Hoisington, I kept seeing the pictures and thinking "Wow! I was in that DQ a month ago!" or "Hey, I remember the high school. They had 'F Pratt' written on the chairs." (Ah, small town rivalries).
The local Wichita station did a special story on the guy who ran the malt shop ("The World's Oldest Soda Jerk") two days before the tornado hit. He's 80 something.
